sorry for spamming y'all

But this just tickles me.

MrIris laughs when I babble about the bands and shows I see, sniggers over me following their blogs and twitters and everything.

Then, today? He sent me a link to a review of The Gourds' new album and an interview with them, and babbled about it.

Dear MrIris,

PLEASE STAND ASIDE AS I ROFLMAO. That? Is fanboying. And is not anything different than what I do.

You are no longer allowed to smile indulgently about my fannish obsessions, okay?

Love,
Me


FYI? The Gourds are at the Continental Club tomorrow night, doors @10pm. They're also doing a signing/acoustic thing at Cactus Music at ~5:30pm.

Heh. I told D he was forbidden from making derogatory "fangirl" comments about or to me EVER AGAIN after he spent 30 hours straight watching (actually, RE-watching) his show, The Unit, a couple of months back. I've never spent a block of time that large on any of my fandoms. I think about 12 hours has been the longest I've done. :)

30 hours straight? That must be a record!

...I was going to watch Jimmy Kimmel live tonight, but A felt the need to play Mario Kart right as it started. So I'm recording it, and will be up very late indeed to watch it when he's done with his orgy of Wii-playing.

You just know how bad "orgy of Wii" sounds, right? :P

Can't wait to hear how our shy boy does...

Well, there are four characters on-screen. Doesn't four count as an orgy? Or is that technically only >4?

Oh, so it was a fourgy of Alexes, or an orgy of them? ;)

[identity profile] why-me-why-not.livejournal.com 2009-01-09 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
It was totally The Fourgy of the Alexes, lol. I had to go look it up myself b/c my memory is shot. But I remember discussion how many people constituted an orgy back when I was writing that.

I still love that somehow Alex blames it all on Gabe. WHO ISN'T EVEN THERE!

[identity profile] why-me-why-not.livejournal.com 2009-01-09 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
IT WAS TOTALLY GABE'S FAULT! Gabe, with his really really ridiculous ideas and his really really ridiculously orgasmic tour. TOTALLY TO BLAME!

:D

Did you read that fic that was Gabe/Gerard? I was all, "Gabe gave him a purple hoodie! He was WOOING HIM WITH COBRA MERCH!"

I DID READ THAT! I loved it so much, omg, words can't even describe it. It got saved with a favorites tag; I really really liked that one. (it didn't hurt that there was Frank/Brendon in there, which is never a bad thing)

haha, oh MrIris! *g* That's hilarious.

[identity profile] asimplechord.livejournal.com 2009-01-09 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
When I opened the email, I was like, "Is he for real with this? SERIOUSLY? HAHAAHAHAHA! HE CAN NEVER LAUGH AT ME AGAIN!"

Also? He offered to go with me to HCT if AAR were the headliners, and I was like, "Uh, well, um..." B/c I know he won't want to be up front at the barrier - he's got issues with crowd surfers since he had one dropped on his head at the Less Than Jake show, and he refuses to be up where he HAS to deal with them.

Seriously? Seriously. *g*

He can totally stand in the back of the crowd with the parents... :P

Hee, I'll keep that in mind. But no, he won't go to a show and then be okay with us separating. He wants us to stand together, in the middle or back of the crowd. Which, uh, is not what I like to do. I want to be at the front!

boo for that then.

Not only is he fanboying and therefore has lost all privleges of saying anything to you about fangirling, but you also wrote that in letter form, which made me smile a lot. Therefore, spam away! :D

He was so EXCITED about them, I had to laugh. And then point it out. :D

*giggles*

Oh, Mr. Iris. Definitely fanboying. :D

[identity profile] asimplechord.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 02:39 pm (UTC)(link)
He WAS! He was all, "Look, they're selling the new CD, and they'll sign them after the show, and man those are ugly tshirts, mine is way cooler." I had to laugh.
